I had the pleasure of getting an advance screener on this. DIRECTOR Gary Jones brings us the explosive non stop action packed Escape from Death Block 13. Starring the charming Robert Bonzi in the lead. Mick Kovacs (Robert Kovacs Bronzi) comes to collect on his dead brothers money owed to his family from his brothers old job. Being turned down by the owner (Nicholas Turturro), has him seek justice his way. He is arrested and charged with attempted murder, assault and sent to Pleasant Hill Penitentiary.
After a meeting with the arresting detectives(Lyindaa Russell and Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs )a deal is made. To be an informant and gather information. If the Information is what they need he will be offered a lesser sentence. They also inform him his brothers death was possibly murder. The place he was working has been rumored to be part of a drug trafficking cartel. He may have been at the wrong place at the wrong time. This infuriates him and revenge is on his mind.
They send him off to prison as a mole and to gather info. Turns out this prison is anything but pleasant.
Turns out that it's not just the prisoners he has to worry about but the corrupt prison guards as well. Lead by a sadistic warden (Debbie Scaletta). But once he discovers the truth behind his brother's death, Mick's rage ignites an explosive riot as he makes a daring escape. Will he be able to get the information he needs or die trying.
You can't help but smile every time you see Robert Bronzi. His mannerisms and looks are uncanny of the late Charles Bronson. He fills the void of the lost action flicks of the 70's and 80's. This is the perfect vehicle for him to showcase his talent. It's a fun no holds barred fun time. Perfectly shot and casted this movie starts off with a bang and just gets better and better. The perfect villains and settings all come together. Sure it's been done before but this just improves on the stalled genre. Robert has the charm and talent to keep on doing these flicks. And you know what I will continue watching.
Highly recommend this for a good ole fashion fun time.
